Doorganizer Guarantees You Remember Your Damn Keys

doorganizer

As a professional key… forgeter… person, I know the importance of having a steady spot to lay down your shit. If I didn’t have “a spot” I’d just throw my keys anywhere and everywhere. Hell, I’d probably just throw them across the room for the fuck of it. But the Doorganizer changes all of that, boring prick that it is.

No more throwing my keys just because I can, nope, the Doorganizer, with its accusing glances and pun-tastic name, ensures that I never have an excuse to show up for work late again. Thanks asshole. Grab your own for $18.

Gaming Towers Keep Your Consoles Organized

Organization is always an issue with gaming consoles. Wires get tangled, controllers get left strewn across the floor, games are left out of their cases. It can develop into a nightmare.

The Xbox and Wii gaming towers (it appears someone has something against Sony) helps keep your console, controllers and games in order. Each tower has designated spots for each controller (including a guitar) and can hold up to 16 different games.

Battery Collector Gets Your Batteries Out of the Junk Drawer

Even people with above-average organization skills sometimes have a rough time keeping track of full batteries. Somewhere in your house, you likely have a junk drawer. And in that junk drawer is doubtless no less than 10 batteries of varied remaining energy levels.

The Battery Collector is an all-in-one solution to battery organization and level testing. Shelf slots offering a variety of battery sizes act as your AAs new home. A battery meter on top of the organizer allows you to test the batteries remaining energy levels. So much more effective than sticking the battery on your tongue and hoping for a tingle.

Picket Fence Keeps Cables Hidden, Untangled

Remember in school how all the network cables stayed hidden with those nice plastic shells that went up and down the walls and side to side on the floors? Wish you could do the same for your home? Now you can, thanks to Brooklyn-based designer Karl Zahn. His Picket Fence project looks to keep your cable collection tucked away behind a classic white picket fence. Sure, there’s wireless solutions, but that’s not ideal for all of us.

You stick a picket on your floor’s skirting board and continue as you see fit. Create a whole wall that resembles your mother’s garden and keep that CAT-5 on the DL. No word if the Picket Fence system will ever be released commercially, though you could always hit up The Home Depot and build your own.

The Computer Desktop Made Real

Ever wished your home could be as organized as your computer desktop? Well, not me, my desktop is an utter mess. But those of you who like the simple organization that your desktop offers, check out this project that brought the desktop alive.

The project put paper files with a desktop-like background on the wall, along with pixelated looking titles, which makes for an excellent home organizational technique.  Though, if the project winds up looking anything like my desktop, you might as well go back to your old way of doing things. — Andrew Dobrow

Tune Tether ranks up there with pocket protectors

tunetetherThe Tune Tether is an invention that will probably make you sad. Why? Because it’s an invention that you could have created by yourself. It solves a problem that nearly everyone has had one time or another. When you are listening to your music through headphones and someone wants to talk to you, although your first reaction might be to ignore them, once you commit to taking your earbuds out, the Tune Tether comes into action. It is basically a piece of plastic that curves around your neck and has two notches for the wires to go into. If you just put your cords into the notches when you put the earbuds in, when you need to take them out for just a second, the Tune Tether keeps them neat and near to your ears so that you don’t have a hastle when you want to put them back in. One problem, you are certain to get made fun of if someone notices that you have something that is made to keep your wires organized. So what do you have to pay for this simple piece of plastic? $9.99 each or a three pack for $19.99. — Nik Gomez
